            Social security benefits or other railroad retirement annuities will reduce the student's benefit.

In *Special Guaranty* cases, any social security benefits or other railroad retirement benefits that any student receives, on the employee's earnings record or on someone else's earnings record, are deducted from the increase to the employee's annuity based on the student benefit; or,
	In survivor cases, the receipt of social security benefits on a different claim number reduces the student Tier 1 benefits. If the student is entitled to more than one RRB survivor annuity, only the higher of the two annuities is payable.
